Sorgelig's recent work on the Console cores along with SmokeMonster's heavy coverage on youtube has gotten the retro console crowd really behind this project. It's fun to see. On the console side the MiSTer has gotten some really nice unique offerings:

If ever Turbografx CD or Sega CD is added, people will be breaking down the doors to get a MiSTer.

I think one of the best things though is that this introduces people who mostly only have dealt with consoles to some of the classic computers as well. What an amazing project. Thanks Sorg and to all the people from both MiST and MiSTer who have contributed work over the years for these amazing cores and ideas.
